Sometimes we assume that in our case will be all you need to spend a long time abroad, but we all know the trouble of packing we can leave out important issues.

To prevent this from happening , a week before the trip , review all documents must carry and makes a list , buy or get a hardcover folder and put all the papers inside, while the list strikeouts . It is recommended that this folder go in your hand luggage and be with you throughout the trip.

Some tips for Educational Trip:

 Research the climate and temperature of the city. Surprises are nice but when it is coming to a city with luggage in tow, looking for the place to stay, you better be ready for a hot sun, heavy rain or freezing cold. Knowing what the average temperatures of the place will help you plan what to pack clothes will be needed. When you approach the date of travel, check what the temperature of the day of arrival (you can use an application for mobile phones) and have on hand the coat, umbrella or sunglasses.

 Meet transportation in the city and their schedules. While it is sometimes difficult to know the entire transport system of a city, we encourage you to investigate the most common routes, schedules (whether or not 24-hour service), pricing, and if there are discounts for students. So you can more easily move daily and will minimize the headache of wondering how to get home if it’s getting late. Tip: Always keep in mind alternative routes to go to school, college or school, and alternate routes to get home.

 Make a weekly budget of expenses. Generally we get excited when we travel and we want to buy things that can reduce our budget without noticing. While it could be part of a scholarship, knowing how much you spend weekly shopping helps balance, so you know whether or not you give that taste this week or wait for the next.
